T-5 Clutch Question

OLSCHL · #1 (**permalink**) 01-09-2007, 06:33 PM

Gday guys,

Wa wondering if you cul help ive got a Mustang T-5 (with BA XR6 Turbo internals). Im looking at buying a short shifter like a B&M or a PRO 5.0. Can you guys recommend any others or recommend and other suggestions in regards to short shifters???

And secondly my master cylinder (the cylinder that has a pushrod connected to the pedal) on my clutch has gone again The bloody seals have had it again and its a real pain the ass to replace and fix as some of you may know . The set up is as per the DRB manual (mines a gen 2 DRB) - LH torana hydraulic set up or GM set up. I wanna know what others are running and would it be better just to go straight to a cable clutch setup???

Thanks guys!!

Steeda has nice shifters also, but I know alot of guys like the feel of the Pro 5.0 shifter. As for the clutch set up alot of guys have gone to the McLeod hyd. throwout bearing to take care of that problem. Hope I could be of some help. jimig@standardtransmission.com

OLSCHL,

What is the local shifter you found ? I need to get one and have been looking at bringing one in from the US.

Me and a buddy just put a Tremac TKO in my Backdraft with a Mcleod hydraulic throwout bearing and a pro 5.0 shifter. Absolutely AWESOME!!! Couldn't be happier. Shifts like a hard Honda if that makes sense. Very firm, positive, almost un-missable shifts. Love it.
